Thing 10
I definitely have mixed feelings about this. It is fun to be able to create your own headline, marquee saying, etc. Some of the generators, though, were difficult, or nearly impossible to work with. Others were, to be blunt, vulgar and offensive. This leads to the problem I have with the Internet, and the idea of free speech. Anyone can post anything on the Net, truthful or not, innocent or not. Certainly, as an adult, I don't have to view these posts, or agree with them, but what about children? Why should they have to be exposed to this stuff? Why should Snoopy or Scooby Doo be available right next to, basically, porn? Who becomes the final arbiter?

Hi John! Cool blog! I can follow yours. Some are so hodge podge they make my head hurt! AND you said you were not a technology type! I beg to differ, you are doing a great job. I have to get back to it, but I must say it actually bores me. As we said so many times at Canfield, how can people spend so many hours on the net? Your observations about these generators are on point! I am stuck on #10 - have to spend more time on it, but will have to force myself. Take care of yourself. My blog is "Are you kidding me?" I had a terrible time getting a url that wasn't take. Have a good weekend. Kathe
